XDebug - Too many open files error on Mac w/ PHPStorm

[lakhman]

Hi,

I'm getting the error 403 forbidden (by apache), After some debugging I came across this:

http://superuser.com/a/829413

It seems the older version of xdebug (2.2.5) that's packaged has this bug and causes problems on Mac.

Can we upgrade this to the latest version (which includes the bugfix for this error "Too many open files").

Thanks

Update was simple: follow the wizard here if you come across the same issue, I just upgraded and it worked! (I was getting a 403 forbidden error intermittently, restarting apache solved it temporarily). Was driving me nuts! - It was definitely the older xdebug bug.

Remember your php.ini values will be in: /usr/local/php5/php.d/*
Run through the wizard here: http://xdebug.org/wizard.php

Note: xdebug 2.4 is in beta, so probably best to wait until it's been released and tested, meanwhile you can simply upgrade xdebug yourself if your having similar issue (403 forbidden intermittently with Mac on PHP storm, restarting apache fixes it but it's really annoying!)

I guess this problem is solved (we upgraded xdebug several times in the meantime). Please reopen, if still an issue
